PART 2 of 2

Congressman Ryan, Senator McConnell,
Reince Priebus, et al...

When you read the background of
Hillary Clinton, it is difficult to believe any one person could lie as often
as she does.

Both Bill and Hillary Clinton have a
reckless disregard for the law -- and for the truth. Bill Clinton’s
“coincidental” meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch on her private jet
as it sat on the tarmac in Phoenix, AZ last weekend, for example. Loretta Lynch
has lost any trust the public might have had for her by telling her security
staff that no one was to be allowed to take pictures of Bill Clinton or herself
as she met with him for a half-hour and then told the public they
coincidentally met and talked about their grandchildren. All of this occurred within
72 hours of Hillary Clinton’s former State Department informing Attorney
General Lynch’s office they weren’t going to deliver the required emails for 27
months... after the presidential election.

We’re supposed to believe that
story?

Perhaps that’s why people don’t take
Hillary’s lies more seriously than they do. Maybe they react with an attitude
of “This must be untrue because no one could possibly tell this many lies about
so many different experiences that should have put her butt in jail.”

In 1971 Hillary was in Berkley, CA
interning for the law firm of Treuhaft, Walker and Burnstein. Their client list
included the Black Panthers, among other militant groups. In a well-documented article
by Don Anastas titled “Hillary Clinton’s Laundry List of Lies”, he quotes her
comments to Saul Alinsky, a known communist. She asked Alinsky (in writing)
when his new book, Rules for Radicals, would be available. “I need some
new material to throw at people,” she told him.

Called a “congenital liar” by
William Safire in the liberal New York Times in January 1996, one of
Hillary Clinton’s first 1970s jobs was serving on the Richard Nixon
Investigative Committee.

Hillary was a Republican and her
problem with truth telling was evident, even then. She was terminated for
reasons of moral turpitude... she was not only a liar, she was willing to
manipulate evidence and put it into a court record to get her man, to make her
case – to get Richard Nixon out of office while preventing Howard Hunt from
testifying. For in-depth facts about why Hillary Clinton was terminated from
this job, go here.

Prior to her husband’s election as
Governor of Arkansas, Hillary made $100,000 in 9 months on a $1,000 investment
in the highly speculative cattle futures
market. At first Hillary claimed she made the investment after
reading the Wall Street Journal. She eventually admitted that James
Blair, a longtime friend of Bill’s and an experienced futures investor, placed
30 of her 32 trades. Was she dodging possible charges of insider trading -- or
was she just lying?

After Bill and Hillary moved into
the White House in 1993, I called her “Thunder Thighs” – affectionately, of
course. Bill was known as a womanizer by all who knew him. It was said that if
it walked, had a body above room temperature, and was equipped with a vagina,
it was fair game for Bill. According to numerous women who came forward
publicly with painful personal stories, it mattered not whether the object of
Bill's sexual appetite was interested in him. What he wanted, he usually got –
with or without his target’s cooperation.

Thunder Thighs was an enabler. She
automatically shifted into liar gear and excoriated those women who had the
courage to speak of the unspeakable... unwanted sex with an arrogant bastard who
only wanted to satiate his sick sexual appetite – even if it meant rape. Though
he could usually charm his way into a woman’s bed -- all good con men are
charming or they wouldn't be good con men -- there were exceptions. Many of
Bill Clinton's sexual episodes have been verified by Dolly Kyle, Clinton's
on-again, off-again mistress from high school and author of a new book about
Hillary titled “Hillary The Other Woman: A
Political Memoir.”

The point is, this man (who became
President of the United States) had a wife who enabled him to continue his
sexual escapades by insisting that the women making such accusations could not
be taken seriously. They were liars, she said. They were the result of a vast
right-wing conspiracy, she said. She did what liars do: They lie.

This is the same woman who has
declared over and over again how she supports and represents women and how
women who claim rape should always be heard and should always be taken
seriously.

Any female who believes Hillary
Clinton supports them is either totally unconscious, uninformed, or is, like
his long-term lover says about Bill Clinton, a sex addict. How any woman can
read the history -- NOT OPINION -- of Hillary Clinton's reactions to charges of
rape against her husband and think she supports women is a scandalous
declaration of how far such women have yet to go. Other women have come a long
way, Baby, but not these.

When the allegations of Bill’s
sexual appetite came to the fore, Hillary was put in charge of the “Bimbo
Eruption” team. She said horrible things about Paula Jones. In case you’ve
forgotten, Hillary recommended non-settlement in the Paula Jones lawsuit –
which, after the Ken Starr investigation, was quietly settled (costing American
taxpayers millions of dollars). Bill Clinton was disbarred from practicing law
in front of the Supreme Court over his perjury in the Monica Lewinski affair.

Too, before deciding to run for the
Office of President, Hillary gave speeches and received large sums of money
from nations who believe women are put on earth to be servants to men in
whatever way a man chooses. A woman in a Muslim nation must provide four male
witnesses if she claims rape and can be (and is) stoned to death for adultery.
Many (most) Muslim women cannot drive a car without a man's permission. The
ways in which Muslim men abuse women are legend. A good psychologist will tell
you that such behavior speaks of fears of male inadequacy.

Hillary Clinton was paid large sums
of money by:

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, $10,000,000
to $25,000,000; State of Kuwait, $ 5,000,000 to $10,000,000; United Arab
Emirates, $ 1,000,000 to $ 5,000,000; Sultanate of Oman, $ 1,000,000 to $
5,000,000; Government of Brunei Darussalam, $ 1,000,000 to $5,000,000; Kingdom
of Bahrain, $50,000 to $100,000; Embassy of Algeria, $ 250,000 to $500,000;
State of Qatar, $1,000,000 to $5,000,000; Emirate of Ras al-Khaimah, $25,000 to
$50,000

Does that sound like someone who supports
women's rights?

Then there is the list of dead bodies that
accompanies the Clinton White House years. Have you forgotten about them? No
accusations have been made of the Clintons of any wrongdoing, but no other
Presidency we know of has such a death legacy list.

It would take a book, not an
article, to cover all of the dangers to national security a Hillary Clinton
Presidency places on our nation – but Republican leaders appear not to care.
They fear Donald Trump and evidently find Clinton an acceptable alternative.
That, in and of itself, tells Republican voters how moral and committed to the
people are those who supposedly represent the Republican establishment. They
continue to withhold their support from Donald Trump... which speaks highly for
Trump.

It also speaks highly for Trump that
his list of dangers of a Hillary Clinton presidency deals mostly with business
matters like international trade and mistakes made during her years as a U.S.
Senator and as Secretary of State. This list is provided to everyone by the Trump
Campaign. It is 35 pages of mistakes Mr. Trump believes Mrs. Clinton has made
throughout her political career.

Perhaps people have forgotten the
removal of documents from Vince Foster’s office (after his “suicide”) by
Hillary’s chief of staff, Maggie Williams (who became
Hillary's campaign manager in 2008)? Or maybe they no longer remember Castle
Grande when in 1995 the Resolution Trust Corporation reported that Hillary had
been one of 11 Rose Law Firm lawyers who did work on Castle Grande. A 1996
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation report said Hillary had drafted documents
that Castle Grande used to
“deceive federal bank examiners.” This is the same woman who, today, refuses to
make the speeches she recently gave to Wall Street investment bankers available
to the public while promising that she, the queen of lies, is on the public’s
side in the war between the people and Wall Street investment bankers.

For readers who have forgotten, the Resolution Trust Corporation
was an organization put in place to coordinate the asset distribution of the
failed savings and loan industry... a failure largely caused by legislation put
in place by the United States Congress.

Her destructive deeds are too many
to explain, but let me list some of them for you:

•
President Clinton gave Hillary authority to handle health care reform. The
program she created was so messed up that even a Democrat-controlled Congress wouldn’t
vote for it. Because of threats made and attempts at political intimidation
while pushing health care, she made a lot of enemies.

•
President Clinton gave Hillary authority to select a female attorney general
and she submitted the names of Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood.
Both were forced to withdraw their names because of their backgrounds. Wood was
later appointed as a federal judge in New York. Hillary next recommended what
Bill Clinton once called his “biggest mistake:” Janet Reno. Those who remember
the Koresh killings in Waco, TX and Vicki Weaver/FBI sniper at Ruby Ridge,
Idaho will quickly see the kind of people Hillary Clinton tends to respect and
appoint to office. With Supreme Court appointments lurking during the next
President’s term of office, that should scare you to death!

•
President Clinton then requested Hillary to recommend the new head of the Civil
Rights Commission. She put forth the name of Lani Guinier – whose
radical views forced a withdrawal of her name.

•
President Clinton asked Hillary for more recommendations. She provided these
names: Web Hubbel (of Whitewater fame) for the Justice
Department, Vince Foster for White House staff, and William Kennedy for
Treasury. As you probably know, Hubbel went to prison, Foster committed suicide
(then drove himself to Ft. Marcy Park to hide his body), and Kennedy (a Rose
Law Firm partner) was forced to resign.

•
Then we had “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted
her friend, Harry Thomason, to provide travel tickets, circumventing the White
House Travel Office. The Travel Office refused to comply and it cost them their
jobs when Hillary reported them to the FBI and got them fired. A guy named
Billy Dale who had worked for years in the White House Travel Office was
charged with mixing personal and White House funds and it took a jury less than
two hours to find him innocent.

•
Hillary recommended her friend Craig Livingston (also
spelled Livingstone) to be Director of White House security. Remember the 900
missing FBI files – the files that provided classified information on enemies
of the Clintons? The material also dealt with widespread use of drugs by White
House staff... at which point, both Hillary and Bill denied even knowing
Livingston. As a result, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office (which
had served seven Presidents). Is it possible today’s Republican leaders are
still intimidated by information Hillary Clinton received long ago about them
in those files?

•
Hillary refused to release the Whitewater documents (Castle Grande). As a
result, Ken Starr was appointed Special Prosecutor. It cost taxpayers $80
million to find out about Bill Clinton’s sperm on Monica Lewinski’s blue dress.

•
Hillary avoided being indicted for perjury and obstruction of justice by using
the words “I do not recall,” or “I have no recollection” and “I don’t know” 56
times during her interrogation.

•
And then we have Benghazi, destroying Department of State emails which she kept
on her personal computer (in violation of the law – which just doesn’t seem to
bother Hillary)... and on and on. I won’t go into any detail about these more
recent unscrupulous violations of honor and truth... you are probably as sick
of hearing about them as I am.

Can you imagine how many dishonesty
crises we will likely have visited on us if this woman is elected to office?
The 24-houe news stations will prosper!

How can the Republican establishment
support someone who hasn’t heard of a law she didn’t want to break, who has a
record of dishonesty and has admitted lying (after being caught and proven to
be a liar), has bad judgment, and, according to her former Secret Service
agents, has an absolutely foul mouth and a volatile temper?

To top that off, remember that after
leaving office Hillary Clinton was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in
White House furniture, china, and artwork that was listed as “stolen.”

Our fearful Republican leaders will
of course say they do not support Hillary Clinton – but it is obvious that by
withholding support from Donald J. Trump, the legitimate candidate... and that
equates to supporting that candidate's opponent.

Then there is her record as
Secretary of State.

What record, you may ask? And there,
as Mr. Shakespeare might say, “is the rub.” Even those who support her cannot
think of anything positive she’s actually accomplished.

There’s a lot of information about
Hillary Clinton in this article but the more important story has to do with the
Republican establishment that enables Clinton to continue with a successful
campaign because they do not like the man you and I selected to represent us as
our Republican candidate.

It also has to do with those who
support Mrs. Clinton. Her background is no secret. They know what they are
getting... and this woman who is totally lacking in character is their choice.
What does that say about them – and about their character?
